Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • ⅓ cup diced yellow bell pepper
  • ⅓ cup diced red bell pepper
  • ⅓ cup diced red onion
  • 2–3 tablespoons Western Dawn (Green Chile Chipotle)
  • 1½ teaspoons yellow mustard
  • ¾ cup ketchup (look for one without high-fructose corn syrup!)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 6 hamburger buns (or whatever carbs you're into—brioche, pretzel buns, even toasted sourdough)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey, diced onions, and bell peppers.

  2. Sauté until turkey is fully cooked and veggies are softened—about 7–10 minutes.

  3. Season generously with Western Dawn, and don’t be shy—this is where the flavor comes alive.

  4. Drain excess liquid if needed, then reduce heat to low.

  5. Stir in ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Simmer gently for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally until everything melds into saucy perfection.

  6. Spoon that glorious mess onto buns and serve warm. Napkins highly recommended.

Pro Tip

Make it extra by topping with melty pepper jack cheese or crispy fried onions.
